Editor's Note

Once again we're running down to sending another firey-hot edition of Atomic to the printers, but we're still making time to share some online love.

That's just how we roll.

We also like to roll with the great and the good of the games industry, and that's just what we've got this week in our article on Blizzard Entertainment's cinematics team. If you've ever ooh-ed (or even aah-ed) over a Starcraft or Warcraft cinematic, you'll want to read this exclusive feature.

We've also got the last of our interviews with the cast of the new Star Trek film; Sulu fans, this is your chance to catch up with John Cho. He's a cool guy - and a real snappy dresser.

On the hardware front, you can learn about AMD's impending shift to the 45nm production process, and we've got a first look Shuttle's new enthusiast-grade watercooling setup. It's the smallest rig we've ever seen, and just about the perfect LANing box.

Plus the usual 'whole lot more'. See you on the forums, gang.

- David Hollingworth, Editor
